NAME

Algorithm::NCS - Fast Perl extension for sequence alignment.

SYNOPSIS

  use Algorithm::NCS;
  Algorthm::NCS::ncs("ABC", "ADC");

DESCRIPTION

Number of Common Substrings (NCS) - A model and algorithm for sequence alignment. The change detection problem is aimed at identifying common and different strings and usually has non-unique solutions. The identification of the best alignment is canonically based on finding a longest common subsequence (LCS) and is widely used for various purposes. However, many recent version control systems prefer alternative heuristic algorithms which not only are faster but also usually produce better alignment than finding an LCS. http://psta.psiras.ru/read/psta2015_1_189-197.pdf
